Exercise #5

Solve the following exercise and circle the appropriate answer:

33.10-11.10

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Let's solve the exercise in order:

We'll subtract the hundreds after the decimal point:

00=0 0-0=0

We'll subtract the tenths after the decimal point:

11=0 1-1=0

Finally, we'll subtract the whole numbers before the decimal point accordingly:

31=2 3-1=2

31=2 3-1=2

And we get:

33.1011.1022.00 33.10\\-11.10\\22.00

Since there are only zeros after the decimal point, we can ignore them and we actually got the number: 22
